Corporate Acquirer in Zürich, Switzerland

Interests: We apply a strict value Investing lens to every opportunity. Here are the specific factors we prioritize: Durable Economic Moats: We look for businesses with high switching costs, strong brand loyalty, or proprietary IP that protects them from competitors. - High Return on Invested Capital (ROIC): We prioritize firms that generate significant profit relative to the capital they deploy, indicating efficient management and a strong market position. - Cash Flow & Pricing Power: The business must demonstrate consistent free cash flow and the ability to raise prices without losing customers (an "inflation shield"). Businesses We Like: - "Boring" Niche Manufacturing: Essential components or industrial parts where they are the market leader in a small pond. - Specialised Financial Services: High-margin asset management or fintech with high recurring revenue. - B2B Infrastructure: Mission-critical services that companies cannot easily turn off. Businesses We Dislike: - Speculative Tech/Biotech: Pre-revenue "moonshots" where the value is based on future hype rather than current cash flows. - Commodity Retail: Businesses with no brand loyalty that compete solely on price, leading to razor-thin margins.
Background: Our company is a Zurich-based investment company developing a new standard for how M&A deals are identified, analysed, and executed. Our platform integrates advanced software with institutional-grade workflows to reduce costs, accelerate deal timelines, and expand the volume of viable acquisition opportunities for small to mid-sized investment funds, family offices, and institutional investors. In short, we are building the infrastructure to reshape and disrupt how European M&A is processed, while allocating revenue from M&A closing fees into a portfolio of public and private equity to drive long-term growth and income generation.
